I Want To Believe

I want to believe.



I want to believe that our government will take care of the health and wellbeing of our citizens. I want to believe that our government will look after the environment. I want to believe that our government will guard the precious freedoms given to us. I want to believe that our government will insure the separation of church and state. I want to believe that our goverment carefully guards all public funds.

I want to believe that I am not naive.

Democracy is a "participation sport". On Independence Day we must celebrate our freedoms, such as they are, but we must remember to be ever vigilant.
